I’ve been reading a lot about Unity college and I’m looking to transfer there from Uconn due to online classes just fitting my schedule better. Has Unity College gotten any better in the last year? Also are they still looking to sell?

No, don't do it. The school is a shell of thier former selves. 100% acceptance. Poor quality programs made to look good with flashy marketing and hype. As a graduate and also former employee go ANYWHERE but Unity College.

I did some work there a couple years ago right before Covid. I was in every building. I was not impressed by 80% of the facility’s. Everything looks old and pieced together with what they have. Some of the dorms are pretty run down.

Don't go. It's pure marketing. All university promotional materials are ads, but there is nothing left at Unity beneath the ads. Except debt.

Depending on your major, there is a college in NH that our youngest went to. All his classes were online.

Unity makes me sad. It used to be such a great unique little college. Almost everyone who is everyone in conservation law enforcement, outdoor recreation and trail building nationwide came through Unity. Then the management fucked it all up. Don’t go.

Yeah, Unity embraced it's name. Used to have a great diverse student base, close community on and off campus. Great dedicated professors and a wonderful atmosphere. I recall being able to go to the union, grab one of 20 old chipped mugs that seemed to come from peoples homes, sweeten it with honey harvested from a professor's beehive and then pay the girl at the counter who was doing work study. All while bob Marley or some other reggae was playing on the rigged together stereo.

A few years later, it was homogenized. All sysco food and disposable cups, pepsi products and run by employees in uniform with no music or a stereo to play it. The place had been gutted.

Fuck "progress" at Unity the administration destroyed the place. Stole the name and moved out of town.
